On tap. Pours a clear pale gold with a small, foamy, long lasting, white head that laces nicely. Sweet fruity aroma of pale malt, peach, passion fruit, strawberry and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of pale malt, grapefruit, mango, cantaloupe and floral hops in a dry, slightly tart finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Refreshing and tasty.

This year's is Galaxy and Strata, but the description from last year doesn't exclude Galaxy; it merely mentions Strata is new to the brewery. So okay. Can. Pale and hazy, with a loose head. Big floral grapefruit and lychee notes. There's a lot of Galaxy in this. It's a damn fine aroma. On the palate, it's not quite as amazing...there's a decent bitterness, some pale malts. The tartness isn't as bright, and neither are the hops. So it's the unfortunate dry-hop for show thing but let down on the palate. Still good, but if the palate lived up to the aroma oh man what could be.
